baby squirrel.

Yesterday morning Laura came and told me that Dumpling (her dog) had found something and was carrying it around in her mouth. She said it was like half mouse and half kitten. And she said it was a pinkish color. She put it under a bucket so that the dogs couldn't get to it. So I went out there, and when she lifted the bucket I immediately knew it was a squirrel. Same little ears, same toes, and same shaped head. It doesn't have a fuzzy tail yet but it does have some of the coloring of a squirrel. So I went and got some gloves, and brought it inside into the sunroom and put it on a towel. Emma came home with some kitten milk and fed it that with a syringe.

That's what it looked like when she lifted the bucket. Curled up in a little ball. :)

Right now he is in a shoe box with water bottles full of warm water and a towel. :) I'll let you know how he is doing in the next couple days. :)
